This marimbula features a rubber-wood body and 8 pretune prongs. It's perfect for everything from afro-cuban to calypso!

The marimbula is a wonderful instrument with a rich historical background. This large music box was originally constructed from freight boxes and scrap pieces of metal. The prongs were struck in order to create a shimmering, walking bass line that was sure to carry the music in high spirits. Today there is a little more of a focus on what goes into making these beautiful instruments. This particular marimbula is constructed of a rubber-wood body. Rubber-wood is known for it’s warm sound and uncanny ability to project. This is perfect as it not only pushes the notes out, but rounds them out as well. The tuning of this particular marimbula is “f c G D F A d g”. This is sure to give you a wide range of sound, making this instrument applicable to anything you’d want to play.
